Said to BE n Divinity.
Gin NS1NNATI, Aug. "a curious, religious
frenzy has pervaded certain circles in Ohio
for the past fourteen years, or ever since the
crusade which was inaugurated about that
time, when bands of women went about
praying in the saloons. This enthusiasm has
gone on intensifying until now the matter has
assumed such strange Importance as to be re.
garded as a serious phenomenon. About
thirty persons, men and women, have aban.
doned the churches and formed an esoteric
band, whose inner mysteries have not been di
vulged to the world. All these people arc
far above the average in intelligence
and social position. One of them is the
widow Of an ex-member of congress and a
territorial judge of Kansas appointed by Blu
chanan. Another is the wife of an ex-iudge
Of court in Cincinnati. Several are girls
barely out of their teens Men Of means, en-
gagged in business, and some mere boys have
joined the band. Some have sacrificed their
occupations to join it, and are depending upon
the Lord to provide for them. Meetings are
held in n beautiful home on Walnut Hills,
owned by man and his wife, who are mem
bers.
Several years ago a series of holiness meet

rhs French Minister of war--vin ne
Become DiCtatorP

Il is the unexpected that happens in France,
and just now all Europe is expecting some
thing to happen there. Successful as the
present government in our sister republic
seems to be, there is an inborn desire among
Frenchmen for hero-a strong, dashing,
fearless leader, one who will carry himself
far above the law. 1t is the old story of the
frogs desiring king. They treated with
contempt the log king that Jupiter sent them,
on account Of the familiarity such IL king per-
mitted; but they were compelled to respect
and fear the stork, their later king, who dc.
soured them as he willed.
Looking back at the list OF leaders Of the
French people, from "Little Nap" to Gam
beta, it would appear that the stork king
was what they most admired, and, Judging
from his past career, this is about what they
are going to have in the person of Gen.
Boulanger, the present minister of war in the
